Thanks for all the good house hunting wishes. We saw 6-8 houses this afternoon, and there was one that's sticking in my head. The caveats are the neighborhood (and how to get to work from there) and that the siding is asbestos, which is apparently fine if it's in good shape, but would probably be costly to replace if it starts to break down. Here's it's MLS listing (the top floor is a total nerd hole!):
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
bon bon's sleeping sickness neck cancer posts made me cry from laughing so hard.

Sue, what a cute house!
It is cute, and surpisingly large from what it looks outside. It's just further than I like from work and downtown, and I don't know how hard it is to catch buses from there. But the simple fact of the matter is that I can't afford anything that's close to downtown. If can, there's probably somethign wrong with it.

It's adorable!
OK, I'm losing my mind. Bought 2 pair underwear. Washed them with the duvet and futon cover and now one pair is awol. Checked laundryroom, checked apartment. Missing. I know I brought 2 from the store. All I can guess is it's in the duvet , but I'm not wrestling that again tonight. Hrmph.

That's a lovely house, Sue.
I've had the sleepies flung on me, but I can't sleep, because we're about to eat dinner. I may fall face first into my plate.
Went out today to see the property where my cousin and her husband are building a house. The concrete foundation is poured - my cousin kept saying that she couldn't believe how small it looked, and now I know what she means. It looks teensy, and yet I know it's not. Weird.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
That's a gorgeous house, Sue.
